I think this is a good point. When I got here, before I started shaping my feed, it was basically rule196, furry porn, tankies and memes.
Actually… A lot like Reddit in the Digg days, minus the tankies.
Less “gems” and rage comics and “Le”, but the same idea, modernized for 2023.
It was those of us (probably in this Lemmy thread, ironically, 15 years-ish later) who outlasted the Le gems of Reddit, and turned it into the modern place.
Then, spez. Fuck spez
Or, maybe, the world is more liberal than you’ve been led to believe as your circle of influence grew smaller as you got older.
Does this feel like Reddit did then? Does to me.
Nah, I think I’ll stay and keep chatting with you fine folks. You seem so grounded. Your points are always well articulated.
Plus,I think making fun of you is entertaining
Hah, sorry guy, you seem to have found yourself smack in the middle of lemmygrad brigade. You can keep replying to them, but it doesn’t matter.
They’re just gonna keep saying shit that makes zero sense, then 10 tankies will upvote them and downvote you
It really doesn’t matter what you say. It’s the same in every thread
He’s just your standard Lemmygrad genius. It’s like /r/theDonald, but somehow, almost dumber, which I thought would be difficult.
How do you appear in every single thread bitching about liberals? You know your people have safe zones? Why not just go there.
Grab yourself a hot little Truth Social ™ account and you can rant about brown people and LGBTQ people all you want. Nobody will complain.
Come on, it’ll be fun. Y’all can compare truck flags.
This is just a great response. Are you waiting to be persecuted for something?
Quick, someone say something nice about LGBTQ people so he can respond and get banned.
Why is this guy still here? He’s been banned already for this same bullshit.
It’s definitely a problem here. They spam to every news community, then brigade the votes. And, they use a bunch of alt accounts on different instances.
Lol, oh good, they’ve seen this. I forgot to mention, they also brigade. 5 downvotes in 5 minutes.
Lemmy.ml also has a lemmygrad instance that is spamming propaganda and disinformation in all the news / politics subs. The !worldnews here is just about useless since it’s 75% lemmygrad users and their alts spamming nonsense.
Honestly? I’d avoid the meme names. Meal Team 6, Y’allquadea, Gravy Seals, Infowarriors, Chair Force.
That shit was funnier in 2017 when it wasn’t quite as dangerous. I don’t have a creative suggestion, unfortunately. But I suppose that’s my advice.
Do it…
I’ll subscribe.
3 shells?
